SD Tips: Find the Best Children Deals

Kids are expensive. From the baby gear to the toys to the constantly outgrown clothes, there’s just no getting around it. Luckily, we’ve got you covered with tons of discounts, deals and specials all rounded up into one spot, so you can keep the kids -- and your bank account -- happy.

When to Shop for Children’s Items

There are a few ways to save when it comes to buying stuff for your kids, and the first is to think about when you buy. Toys deals, for example, are best in November (specifically during Cyber Monday) and December. But you can find discount toys in January and February too, as retailers may be trying to get rid of anything that didn’t sell during the holidays. If you have a gamer on your hands, know that older video games also tend to go on sale at the beginning of the year. For clothing, shop end of season sales for the best prices, but don’t pass up those back-to-school sales from mid-summer through September.

Who Has the Best Sales on Children’s Items?

As far as where to shop, try Amazon, Target, Walmart and Toys ‘R Us for great toy deals and baby gear. For children’s clothing deals, look out for sales and specials from The Children’s Place, Old Navy and Target; all offer cute, basic pieces at good price points. For trendier fare, check out the kid’s section of H&M. Their clothes are both adorable and affordable.

How to Find the Best Diaper Deals

Diapers are huge expense those first few years of your child’s life, but prices can vary wildly between brands and stores. If you really want to save, it pays to check for diaper deals at various retailers before you buy your next box of diapers. It’s especially wise to check the price per diaper, too. We often see deals offering prices of anywhere from $0.09 to $0.17 per diaper depending on size. Typically, Amazon has some of the best diaper deals, often offering anywhere from 30% to 50% off diapers. Target is another good option, though their deals typically involve earning gift cards when you buy two or more boxes of diapers, which is great if you’re a regular Target shopper.
